LAND OF THE ONTEORAS 





In the Liapd of the Onteoras 



OUR SUMMER PARADISE 



A land of Beauty and Delight 

Of Romance and Adventure bold 
Where mountains rise from height to height 

And fairest scenes so dear unfold : 
Where dasied meadows wide outspread 

And lakes of silver fair enshrine 
Deep forests spicy odors shed 
Through air that stirs the blood like wine — 
A land of Life 'neath sunny skies — 

Our Summer Land of Paradise. 
Hither come Our Friends from Everywhere 

And sharing all we have 
There's more to spare. F. A. Gallt. 





Great Hudson, Mighty King— 
And fair Half Moon, 
Your modest ship of state — 
Whence came you up our river? 
To see these Mountains great? 
You sought not age long glory 
But left an honored naiie — 
For Hudson Bay and River 
Hath brought you added fame. 




HENRY HUDSON 1609 

It is not disputed that Hendrick 
Hudson in the Half Moon visited Catskill 
in 1609, after a trip of several weeks 
up the Hudson River. Just how long, 
he remained does not matter. Indians 
met him in their bark canoes. Doubt- 
less they were members of the five tribes who gave names to the streams, and 
mountain ranges. The Indians called the river Mahacanntuck, and they called 





the mountains the Onteoras. They regarded the Half Moon as the Manitou 

or Great Spirit. 

Spirit indeed it was, for as time rolled on came civiHzation to the section, 

the sloops being followed by steam vessels, of which the Clermont was the first 

steamer in 1807. Other boats fojlowed, Armenia, Alida, Francis Skiddy, 

Daniel Drew, and many other great steamers, the last and greatest being the 

great floating palaces of the Day Line, of which the Hendrick Hudson, Robert 

Fulton and Washington Irving take their names from the great historicals that 

made famous the region of the Catskill Mountains. 



LAND OF THE ONTEORAS 



iQt. 




V^'CXERMONT • ISO 7 



The Clermont sailed from Paulus Hook (Jersey City), Sept. 4, 1807, at 
6 a. m. and arrived at Albany on Saturday, Sept. 5th at 6 p. m. Steamers 
make the trip now in 8 hours and the fast N. Y. Central trains in 3 hours. 
Fulton's boat, which appeared in the Hudson Fulton parade, could make about 
3 miles an hour. 




The first locomotive was the DeWitt Clinton, made at West Point and 
was taken to Albany by boat, where it was put in operation on the Mohawk- 
Hudson Railroad. It made the trip to Schenectady in one hour and 45 
minutes. This was a speed of 7 miles an hour. The third railroad in the 
state was from Catskill to Oak Hill and the cars and locomotive were of the 
same pattern, which we show in cut. 

Compare all of this with the present day boats, trains, automobiles and 
air ships. 

Greene county is famous for its mountains, lakes, and waterfalls. There 
are fourteen towns, and all are more or less devoted to the entertaining of city 
guests in the summer season, when the vacation time is on. Catskill is the 
distributing point to the entire section, being the point of landing of the Day 
Line steamers, and main stations of the N. Y. Central and West Shore rail- 
roads. 



THE SPIRIT OF RIP VAN WINKLE LINGERS HERE 
You meet the Sprightly Gnomes as then : 
Here you Commune with Nature's God — 
It makes you Better Men. 




The Sheltering Rock and Whispering Pine 
Here lend and Added Cheer — 
Wild Beasts are Gone, the Vixen's Stilled 
While all Delights are Here.

HAUNTS OF RIP VAN WINKLE 



The completion of the two great railroads and the advert*' of the river 
greyhounds made possible the boardmg industry that has dotted the mountain 
section with well kept and commodious boardmg houses. Good roads and 
automobiles have served to bring the mountain section within a few hours 
of the crowded city centers, and the pure air, and health giving influences of 
ihe Catskills have made them the resort for millions seeking rest, recreation 
and health. 




The Plodding Ox Once Drpw the L'^'Jid — 
The Sperding Motor Now Needs not the (load 

With the advent of the automoibile the railroads were forced to give way. 
State roads were building along the great arteries of travel. The mountain 
section commenced to get them. The importance of connecting up the moun- 
tain section resulted in the building of the Clove road. George B. Van Valken- 
Turgh, Hon. J. Lewis Patrie, George H. Chase and Harding Showers, prominent 
men of Greene county, were largely instrumental in bringing about the con- 
struction of the road. It is readily to be seen that this road is one of the most 
important in the state at least branching from the great artery of travel north 
and south, linking up the West Shore, N. Y. Central, Day Line, Evening Line 
iis well as the New York state roads on both sides of the Hudson.

FROM CITY'S DIN TO MOUNTAIN'S CHARMS 

The seething city's deafening noise 
Grows dim and then no more. 
The moving palace glides away — 
A. new world lies before. 
Out of the man-made pit of haste, 
Into a world that God made fair,- 
Rich in a splendor ot glory it lies, 
With beauty in riot everywhere, 
Along a river brimful of sunbeams 
With hills ot green piled high around, 
Where Echo is lull of quips and pranks 
x'ind tattles every sound, 
Wheie the valley, like a mother. 
Clasps the H\:dson to its breast. 
While it gazes up with longing 
To the Catskill's noble crest. 
Deep in the side of a mountain 
A brown road climbs around 
By a luring pass thru a wonder world 
To a Paradise, — lost and found. 
And all is sweet in the mountain gorge. 
For God meant it so to be. 
Perfecting His handiwork, He laid it there 
For all His children to see. 

Then the brov\n load bends as a brown road 

will. 
And the whole wide world is seen 
From Horse shoe Curve at the great Cross 

Cloves 
With their gaping gorge between, 
The mountain gained, — here Indian Head 
Looks sternly fiom its height; 
And Sugar Loaf and the Mountain Twins 
Defend the valley's right. 
High Peak and Elka looking up. 
See Round Top. cloud capped m the sky, 
While Onteora, — Hill of God, 
Stands modestly and quif^tly by. 

And the calm and the peace and the quiet 

Have a charm that bewitches alway 

A charm for the soul and a charm for the 

ni i I d 
And acliarni that will lure you to stay. 
TannersviUe, N V. CLARA LACKEV

Carnegie Library, Y. M. C. A. building costing $40,000, three fine banks, splen- 
did school buildings and model churches, two theaters and many fine stores. 
There are several large summer boarding houses, and excellent hotels, the 
Saulpau jh taking the lead. The manufacturing includes knitting mills, cement 
plants, brick yards, glass works, as well as several large and well equipped 
garages. The garages are Post's, Lacy & Norton, Catskill Tire and Vulcaniz-

Col. B. B. Stone of Catsk II 



Familiarly Known as Rip Van Winkle 




South Lake 
E'en pictured pines their evening dip partake 
While shadows sok are mirrored in the lake. 
Near the Mountain House are North and South Lakes. Two great bodies 
of water set like diamonds on the very mountain top, with only a bare rim ot 
rock and earth to prevent their spilling into the valley below. Here you have 
the forest of Rip Van Winkle. 



HEART OF THE CATSKILLS 



The''raost wonderful view in the state is to be had from the 
Catskill mountains where many mountain ranges and some 60 miles of 
the Hudson River are in sight.

LAND OF THE ONTEORAS 



The Kaaterskill Clove, through which passes the wonderful new 
state road to V^e top of the mountains, is one of the most wonderful 
glens. Towering gorge-;, whose sides rise hundreds of feet, the rushing 
stream, plunging over dizzy heights in scores of cascades, are alone worth 
a trip of hundreds of miles to see. Haines Falls at the head of the gorge 




has a plunge of 2(30 feet and the Kaaterskill Falls is still higher These 
are the two greatest of the cataracts. The Five Cascades, Fawns Leap, 
Bastian Falls, Wildcat Falls, Niobe Falls, Trumpbour's Falls, Du Bois 
Falls and many others are to be seen.

WE TRAVEL TO THE SUMMIT OF THESE ANCIENT HILLS- 




Scene on Railroad near the Kaater:skill 



LAND OF THE ONTEORAS 



No visitor to this section should fail to make the trip to the mountain top 
through the wonderful Kaaterskill Clove. The Clove is 8 miles from Catskill 
on a direct road which is always in good shape, though not a state road. The 
Clove extends for four miles, commencing at Palenville and following a rushing 
mountain stream through one of the most picturesque glens in the worLv It 
is an 8 per cent grace road to the very mountain top at Haines Falls. This 
is on the shortest and cirect route to the heart of the Catskill mountains, and 
good state roads are to be found not only from New York or Albany but all 
through the mountain section. 




Near the Mountain Top 

The route to the top of the mountains for years commencing in 1823 was 
hy a road built by the Catskill Mountain House Company, and a road at Palen- 
ville through the clove. Both these roads were very steep and dangerous to 
travel thoJgh thousands traveled over them taking from four to five hours to 
reach the Mountain House or Hames Falls. In order better to accommodate 
Ihe throngs the Catskill Mountain railroad and Otis Elevating railroad were 
J.uilt at a cost of $750,000.

HAUNTS OF RIP VAN WINKLE 




Scene Near Lake's Bridge, New Clove Road 
Here the sun rises in its golden splendor and sets in a halo of purple 
and red at twilight. Here nature lends a charm, which only those who 
visit the section can fully appreciate- The pioneers forsaw it all and made 
possible their fondest dream when in 1823 a road was built to the summit 
of North Mountain and the Catskill Mt. House erected. The old four 
horse stage, a wonderful contrivance of its day, conveyed the tourist from 
Catskill to the mountain house, and great men like LaFayette, Burr 
and Alexander Hamilton were among those who visited the section. Some of 
these men went from there to the old Prevost house which we show in another 
part of this book. The erection of the mountain house has been followed by 
hundreds of other hostelries and the section has become the health and 
pleasure summer resort of millions since. There are great hotels like the Laurel 
House, also a pioneer, Kaaterskill, Antlers, Overlook. Twilight Inn, etc.
